In writer-director Harmony Korine’s second feature, Ewen Bremner portrays a young man plagued by mental illness. The grueling horrors of his home life don’t help; he suffers under a ruthless tyrant of a father (Werner Herzog in a rare turn in front of the camera) and finds little solace in the sister he may have impregnated (Chloe Sevigny) or his brother, an aspiring wrestler. The first American release to experiment with the Dogme 95 Manifesto’s “Vows of Chastity,” JULIEN DONKEY-BOY wields a unique abstracted aesthetic, shot on MiniDV before being transferred to film.
